“I was just worried Tantai Lan had other motives, which is why I asked. I wasn’t being impatient. Xiao Chu is my disciple, so it’s normal for me to worry about someone harming him.”
“Shijie is truly unrestrained! What ‘my Chu’! She really has no shame!”
In the dim room, Luo Huangjun looked at Tantai Jinglian’s message, muttering softly with a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.
But in her mind, the scene Tantai Jinglian described unconsciously appeared.
As the Master, she would lean into Chu Ge’s arms, her eyes filled with spring water as she looked at him, shyly and timidly calling out, ‘my Chu.’
Just thinking about it sent a sensation like an electric current through her entire body.
“No, no, no, absolutely not!”
She shook her head violently, as if to throw this bold image out of her mind.
“Even… even if it came to that point, this Master would never act so girlish!”
What Luo Huangjun was thinking at this moment was that she couldn't possibly have such a posture, not that the heart-pounding scene in her mind couldn't happen with Chu Ge.
................
“Ding, beginning diary section reward settlement. Congratulations to the host for receiving the daily cultivation reward: Star Aperture +4.”
The System’s notification sounded, and Chu Ge immediately claimed the reward. Star Aperture +4, bringing him to 150 Star Apertures.
He glanced at the System panel. Thanks to Ye Chen’s recent contribution, his Villain Points had reached 65,500. He only needed 15,000 more to upgrade the diary section again.
Without further thought, Chu Ge picked up the northern dipper profound crystal and quickly entered a cultivation state.
For the foreseeable future, Chu Ge planned to Cultivate with all his might using the northern dipper profound crystal to open Star Apertures.
Chu Ge didn't plan to emerge from seclusion until the stellar essence in this northern dipper profound crystal was completely exhausted.
The next day.
Su Ling’er, who had specially emerged from seclusion early in the morning, looked at Chu Ge’s tightly shut door, a little dazed.
‘Why is that stinky Junior Brother still cultivating?’
‘Didn’t he say he was going to put the yandao ring on me? I’m all ready!’
She had forgotten that although Chu Ge had said he would also get Yandao Rings and enlightenment tea leaves for her and Luo Huangjun, he didn't know when they would emerge from seclusion, so he naturally couldn't wait specifically for them.
“Ling’er, what are you doing standing here?”
A cool voice sounded behind her. Su Ling’er, like a startled cat, spun around abruptly, her two ample endowments swaying wildly, attracting attention.
“Ah, it’s Master!”
Seeing it was her Master, Su Ling’er’s face broke into a goofy smile.
Luo Huangjun frowned at the sight.
Was this girl doing it on purpose? Did her movements really need to be so exaggerated?
Was she afraid people wouldn’t notice those two burdens?
Su Ling’er, however, didn’t notice anything unusual and trotted towards Luo Huangjun.
But in Luo Huangjun’s eyes, Su Ling’er’s still-swaying pair of ‘evil bears’ bounced up and down with even more exaggerated Amplitude.
Even with clothing restraint, these magnificent objects were still incredibly elastic.
They made Luo Huangjun a little dizzy.
Her brow immediately twitched again.
‘I really don’t know what’s so good about such useless things. Xiao Chu likes them so much. If they were on a mortal woman, she’d probably be gasping for breath after just a few steps of running or jumping.’
‘Such a burden, better not to have them!’
She thought to herself, quite fiercely.
Su Ling’er trotted to a stop in front of Luo Huangjun. Her body stopped, but other parts were still swaying.
However, she was clearly already used to it. She leaned towards Luo Huangjun and spoke softly: “Master, are you also here to wait for Junior Brother?”
Both were women, and Su Ling’er had followed Luo Huangjun since childhood, so she naturally wouldn't be reserved.
Therefore, her ample and soft body directly made contact with Luo Huangjun. Those two ‘evil bears,’ being overly majestic, naturally bore the brunt, lightly bumping against Luo Huangjun’s arm.
Luo Huangjun only felt a soft, sticky sensation on her arm, which made her feel indescribably awkward and uncomfortable.
She immediately took a step back, and seeing that the distance was still too close, she took two more steps back.
This left Su Ling’er dumbfounded.
‘Master, are you serious about stepping back like that?’
She even clearly saw a hint of disdain flash in Luo Huangjun’s eyes.
However, it wasn’t directed at herself, but at other parts of her body.
Luo Huangjun also realized her actions might have been a bit excessive, seeing Su Ling’er’s small mouth already pouting.
She immediately cleared her throat to cover her embarrassment: “Ahem, Ling’er, although we are both women, we should maintain an appropriate distance…”
Upon hearing this, Su Ling’er thought about it and agreed. She immediately cast aside that tiny bit of grievance.
She was naturally cheerful and wouldn't let such trivial matters affect her.
“Master, Junior Brother is still cultivating! Master must have read yesterday’s diary section, that Yandao Ring!”
Luo Huangjun naturally knew what Su Ling’er was referring to, but she had a little selfish desire.
“Let’s not talk about this for now.”
“I observe that your vital energy is still somewhat unstable, and the fused Origin is not yet thorough enough.”
Luo Huangjun feigned seriousness.
“Huh? Is that so?”
Su Ling’er widened her eyes, a little confused. Why didn’t she feel it herself?
Her Realm was very stable, and the fused Origin was also very thorough.
But Master’s cultivation was so profound; how could she lie to her? If she said she had these problems, it must be true.
Su Ling’er thought so.
“Naturally so. Let’s go. I will test you.”
A barely noticeable glint flashed in Luo Huangjun’s eyes.
Upon hearing this, although Su Ling’er was a little unwilling, she had been an obedient child since she was small, so she naturally wouldn't defy her Master.
“Alright.”
The two walked out of Taihuang Hall together.
Su Ling’er quickly cast aside her slight unhappiness, but she didn’t notice the faintly visible unnaturalness on Luo Huangjun’s face.
‘Ling’er, I’m sorry. This is the only time.’
Luo Huangjun thought to herself. Tricking her disciple for the first time truly made her feel a bit ashamed.
Chu Ge had given the first yandao ring to Shui Qianrou, but that couldn’t be helped. After all, she was in seclusion at the time, and missing it meant missing it; she couldn't blame anyone else.
But this second Yandao Ring, she didn't want to yield it to anyone.
She wasn't coveting the Yandao Ring's effects; to be honest, it might have a slight effect on her, but only a very slight one.
What Luo Huangjun cared about was the significance of Chu Ge personally putting the yandao ring on her.
Although Chu Ge hadn't revealed what special meaning the yandao ring had when worn on the left middle finger,
her intuition told her that wearing this yandao ring had an extraordinary meaning.
